Intended Use
Liquichek Qualitative Urine Toxicology Control is intended for use as an assayed quality control urine to monitor the performance of laboratory procedures for qualitative urine toxicology.
Device Story
Liquichek Qualitative Urine Toxicology Control is a liquid-form quality control material derived from human urine; supplemented with drugs of abuse, metabolites, preservatives, and stabilizers. Used in clinical laboratories to monitor performance of qualitative urine toxicology testing procedures. The control provides a known reference to verify assay accuracy and precision. Healthcare providers use the output to validate that laboratory testing systems are functioning correctly before reporting patient results. Benefits include ensuring reliability of toxicology screening results, thereby supporting accurate clinical decision-making regarding patient drug status.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Stability testing was performed to validate shelf life (3 years at 2-8°C) and open-vial stability (30 days at 2-8°C or 18-25°C).
Technological Characteristics
Liquid matrix derived from human urine; contains drugs of abuse, metabolites, preservatives, and stabilizers. Storage: 2-8°C. Open vial stability: 30 days at 2-8°C or 18-25°C. Shelf life: 3 years at 2-8°C. No electronic, software, or energy-based components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an assayed quality control material to monitor the performance of laboratory procedures for qualitative urine toxicology. No specific patient population, age, or gender restrictions apply as this is an in vitro diagnostic control material.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A clinical toxicology control material is a device intended to provide an estimation of the precision of a device test system and to detect and monitor systematic deviations from accuracy resulting from reagent or instrument defects. This generic type of device includes various single, and multi-analyte control materials.
